KYIV — Third-grader Stanislav Martynyuk looks extremely proud in his school photograph. Hands folded on his desk; his eyes framed with spectacles that make him look like a serious – and adorable – 8-year-old scholar.It was this image of Stanislav – alongside similar snaps of his sister Tamara, 12, and brother Roman, 17 – that was put on display at a makeshift memorial at their school in Korostyshiv and shared on social media after the three siblings died when a Russian strike hit their home over the weekend.The trio was among at least 14 civilians killed over the weekend in the latest wave of Moscow’s escalating aerial assaults against Ukrainian cities.Analysts say the brutal campaign is part of a deliberate strategy by Russia that is designed to create an impression that it...
